Custom Post Type UI provides an easy-to-use interface for registering and 
managing custom post types and taxonomies for your WordPress website — no 
coding required.
Used by more than 1,000,000 active WordPress sites, CPTUI is the trusted 
foundation for building structured content in WordPress. Whether you are 
creating a portfolio, events calendar, product catalog, staff directory, or 
any other custom content type, CPTUI gives you the tools to define it quickly 
and correctly.

CPTUI handles registration. CPT UI Pro handles everything else.

Custom Post Type UI

Works well, but it's missing a number of CPT options: rest_namespace, capabilities, map_meta_cap, register_meta_box_cb, rewrite[feeds, pages, ep_mask], template, and template_lock. I realize these are not common, but it's a drag when you go to create your third CPT and realize you need to find a different solution that will accommodate one of the missing options. It's no good to have a few registered in CPTUI and a few by hand.

Good, but missing a bunch of options.


There is no documentation. In plugin description there is just a link to so called documentation that is just bunch of tutorial of doing specific stuff that are very scarce and targeted to people who already know how to use it. Nothing for first time users, to learn how to actually begin with plugin, or at least nothing that can be easily found.


One of the worst documented plugins I saw


Thank you very much for this amazing Plugin that serves us since years!

Plugins like these make wordpress worthwile


Great piece of software


CPT UI is the standard for managing post types in WordPress. It allows developers to extend WordPress capabilities without writing complex code.



To help the Persian community, I have translated 100% of the plugin and Readme.As the PTE for this locale, I focused on using standard WordPress terminology (e.g., correct translation for "Slug", "Taxonomy", "Hierarchical") to ensure the interface is intuitive for Iranian developers.



Thanks for this great plugin!



Best regards,@saeidafshariترجمه فارسی این افزونه محبوب به صورت ۱۰۰٪ کامل شد. تلاش کردم در ترجمه اصطلاحات فنی مثل (نامک، طبقه‌بندی و…) از استانداردهای رسمی وردپرس استفاده کنم تا رابط کاربری برای همکاران عزیز روان و قابل‌فهم باشد.


Essential tool! Now perfectly translated into Persian
